Crab quest: the ethical case for HBD research.

@GrumplessGrinch Ethical orientation IMO is to treat these separately & collectively as very very hard but important engineering problems. -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch Right takes human nature(s) as a given, left asserts they don't/can't exist. -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch Seems like right is correct *unless* you're a fairly optimistic transhumanist type. Even then... -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch ...possible that as tech to improve intelligence arises, "head start" causes ext gaps to increase. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch That's precautionary principle/Kass talk. Like "oh well it's bad to die at 22 sure but we shouldn't live to 120" -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch Nah I want intelligence upgrading, very badly. Just not optimistic that it will magic away these political probs. -
@simplic10@GrumplessGrinch So pursue those deltas and let the future decide what to do next. Far orientation is a trap. -
@St_Rev@GrumplessGrinch To be explicit: hard for ppl to regard others 1 or 2 IQ stdevs below them as anything but NPCs. That's true *now*. - 6 more replies
